Chapter 658 660. Accounting Office
While waiting for the honest coachman outside to come in, the six guards from before were already sitting there, flipping through the account books quickly.
Everyone was even more shocked. He just flipped through the account book casually without using an abacus. It didn't look like he was looking at an account book, but rather like he was playing a game.
Liu Xuan stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Master Gu has many capable people under his command. I have asked someone to prepare tea. Let's chat while we wait."
Gu Wenheng motioned the driver to join in, and then walked towards the position arranged by Liu Xuan. "That's great. I also want to ask Lord Liu about the cultural landscape here."
"No problem..."
Liu Xuan had noticed at this moment that those who were checking the accounts all had a pen in their hands and started to make marks on the account books.
"Master Gu, the Inspector's account book must not be damaged, otherwise we will not be able to pay the bill."
Gu Wenheng glanced at him and called out to Lai Ming, "What happened just now? Why did you start writing so quickly?"
Ming thought, "Sir, I have found a few mistakes. I will mark them so that we can better reconcile them."
"You didn't even use an abacus, so how can you say there's something wrong with the account book?" Liu Xuan said with a cold face, "This is not a place where you can mess around."
Gu Wenheng ignored him, but took Mingxiang's account book, looked at the place he just pointed out, turned around and said to Liu Xuan with a smile, "My guard is really not talking nonsense. Although his accounting skills are not outstanding under me, they are also quite satisfactory.
Sir Liu, please take a look. The mistakes have been marked. If you don’t believe me, have someone recalculate it.”
"How is that possible? If you are lying, be careful that I will punish you for disrupting public affairs."
Ming Xiang said respectfully, "If you don't believe me, just go ahead and check. If I really made a mistake, I will take the blame."
Liu Xuan called Shu Shi over at this moment, "Go and calculate it."
Shushi used the abacus for a long time and said, "Sir, this young man did not make a mistake in his calculations."
He wanted to just say that the other party had made a mistake, but facts spoke louder than words. What's more, there were several people watching him calculate, so he couldn't lie.
Liu Xuan laughed dryly at this moment, "Maybe the people below made a mess of the account. It seems that I misunderstood this little brother."
Gu Wenheng took a sip of tea and said to Ming Xiang, "Hurry up, you guys, this speed won't work."
Mingxiang patted his head and smiled foolishly, "Sir, you know I like to wield swords and swords, and I am most impatient to deal with these numbers.
This speed is not as fast as the accountant in the mansion, you really can't blame me."
Gu Wenheng laughed and scolded, "Why do you have the time to talk to me? You have already looked at two account books. Hurry up. You have been busy for several days in a row. I am tired even though you are not."
Ming wanted to give everyone a shy smile, then turn around and join the team settling the accounts.
Everyone: "..."
Liu Xuan: "...Master Gu really has a lot of capable people under his command."
Even the coachman who had just been called in was flipping the cart as fast as these guards.
Even at this time, he had already finished counting an account book, folded up the places with errors, put them aside and said, "Master, this account book has been counted, and the small errors have been marked. Please check it."
Everyone: "..." When will the coachman also have to master the skill of accounting?
Gu Wenheng asked the historian beside him to continue, and said with a smile, "Let's see if my people have cheated. If they are wrong, I will punish them."
Shu Shi's face became more and more solemn. Even though he was not an accountant, he could still do the calculations for the marked accounts.
Looking at the people around watching the fun, he simply stuffed a book with the mistakes pointed out into their hands and said, "Everyone, don't be idle. Come and help take a look."
Liu Xuan's face became more and more ugly at this moment. Seeing that everyone was really checking the accounts there, he stood up and said, "How could there be so many problems with this account book? This layman is not understanding the doorway. Lord Gu should control his subordinates and find a special account office to check it!"
Gu Wenheng straightened his back and said, "It will also let Master Liu know that ordinary accountants are really not as good as these few.
If Master Liu doesn't believe it, isn't there an old accountant here? Let him come out and compare."
Liu Xuan looked unhappy. "Master Gu is so arrogant. He just arrived and started to check the accounts. What's the purpose?"
Gu Wenheng looked at him in surprise, "Master Liu, I am following the rules. During the handover period, I must reconcile accounts and hand over official duties.
It just so happens that they are reconciling their accounts right now, so I would like to trouble Sir Liu to do a handover with me."
Liu Xuan, "..."
He wanted to refuse, but he had to save face in front of so many people, so he had to ask his attendants to deliver all the things.
As for the people below, they all exchanged glances. Previously, they thought that this Lord Gu would be in trouble if he did not arrive to take over the term, but now the situations of both sides are about to be reversed.
As the guards threw the account books to them one by one, their faces became more and more solemn.
The main reason is that these people are really too amazing. Many things are marked clearly, and even they are not accountants can see it clearly.
Just when it was almost over, the old accountant finally arrived. His hands were shaking when he saw so many mistakes being picked out.
Although he was not responsible for these accounts, he still received a salary from them. If they are really investigated, he cannot escape.
"Where is Accountant Xiao?" The old accountant was looking for someone at the scene. He was Lord Liu's confidant and also the chief accountant. He had always been in charge of these account books.
"Accountant Xiao has already left," Shu Shi had some friendship with the old accountant and knew that this matter was of great importance, so he quietly reminded him in his ear.
"The handover hasn't been completed yet, and Lord Liu is still here. How can he leave?"
Seeing that no one noticed him, Shu Shi reminded him again, "Master Liu is probably in trouble this time. Sir, you have to get ready quickly."
The old accountant said, "If I had known this two years ago, I should have quit this job, but I didn't expect to end up here.
Thank you for your reminder. When the two adults have a good discussion, I will tell them about Accountant Xiao's matter."
He had been assigned some unimportant and trivial account books before, and now, if he was asked to take the blame, he would not be willing to do so.
Now that both adults are here, this might be his only chance.
He waited quietly by the side, watching the speed at which those young men flipped through the account books. He was shocked and wondered when could accounting be done so quickly.
In particular, before he even waited for the two adults, the account books that had been piled up for several years had already been settled.
I saw these people each holding a piece of paper, writing and scribbling together. Just when they were confused, the one called Mingxiang stood up and reported, "Sir, we have calculated all the differences."
